Lumbar fusion with collagen type I and polyvinylpyrrolidone in combination with autograft. An experimental study in New Zealand rabbits
Abstract: Introduction: Multiple strategies have been developed looking for upgrading the consolidation rate of spine arthrodesis with autolog bone graft, but no evidence exists that adhesion with Collagen type 1 and polyvinylpyrrolidone (FibroquelMR) have application on this field. Objective: Determine if collagen type 1 + Polyvinylpyrrolidone are effective as bone enhancer in posterolateral arthrodesis on rabbits. Method: Posterolateral arthrodesis in 15 New Zealand rabbits on level L5-L6 using autolog bone graft in left side (control group) and autolog bone graft + 1 ml FibroquelMR (study group) in right side of arthrodesis. Euthanasia and block resection of lumbar segment eight weeks post surgery. Radiographic analysis, manual exploration and light microscopy of fussed segments. Results: Radiographic consolidation was observed in 80% in control group and 95% in study group, interleaved trabecular pattern with bone continuity and normal characteristics in 12 left sides and 14 right sides. Conclusion: Collagen type 1 and polyvinylpyrrolidone use is likely to have positive effect in bone consolidation process, therefore it can be recommended to use it as a bone enhancer.
